oh how I <3 them yoogscast. It would seem they just go into the beta, My guess is the NDA is still on for media, but they just dont care. (I could be wrong, but im pretty sure we would know by now if it really was "allowed")
also wouldnt day9 be all over it?
I think its safe to say they got in with F&F wave 2
No NDA, Press/Fansites are just not allowed to be in the Friends and Family beta.
There is a NDA for the media, as a few press got into F&F
thats what we are talking about
Their access was revoked again, there is no NDA. (By revoked i mean those prior to having been invited today, those from today/yesterday has yet to get their access revoked)
According to all the media sites, they all say there is a "media" nda, im going to take their word on it =P
@jorthax I agree... I really hope we get some kinda info on this, they really should just let them stay i, this is so much better than the poor quality streams we have been getting.
@Girth Yeah, it all depends on what mood your in that day =P

A Starcraft 2 caster and a cyincal twatbrit hardly counts as "all media sites".
Either way, no NDA exist, Though you could easily call it an "effective NDA" if you will, though that terminology is incorrect, because basically the press and fansites are not allowed into the beta until the closed beta starts, but as we've seen, some people have gotten past it. Most notably Day9 and now most recently Athene and Yogscast.
Their access will be revoked if they are considered press by Blizzard, it's not that these guys are allowed to play the game but can't post about it, they're absolutely not allowed to have access to it at all, and that access will be revoked as soon as possible.
yeah... all it means is they will be removed from the F&F. It just seems like most of the EU F&F got in, which is why they did. Press is still not allowed into the beta. The news team here would be all over it.

900,000+ subscribed people on youtube is F&F ? Isn't Athene+TotalBiscuit+YogCast media ? They got all together nearly 2,000,000 subscribers.
uggg Yes they are media, im saying they got in via the F&F wave, not the press and media invites. Media is still not allowed to be in. they will be kicked out.
If it was time for press and media, diablofans would be in there along with other core diablo press and media sites.
All three posted they got in, TB posted that it was lifted because they got in, its clear thats the case due to sixens post. Do you really think for a second, if it was time for the press and media, blizz would not have informed one of the core dibalo fan sites' news crew? When its time, Sixen will know as well. Along with the news managers of this site.
it has not even been 24 hours, to say they havnt done anything is a little to soon.
Remember they are deleting all the topics about this left and right. Also lets not forget the whole reason there was the media nda was so that they all went at once right? so why would only three of them be there now, and not official fan sites?
If it truly was up, do you relay honestly full heatedly think this site wouldnt know, with the connections they have with blizzard?
[I mean you know Dev that I want it to be the case of course =P] But it just is not logical to me. Once its lifted, Media sites that focus only around diablo (while these caster dont) would surely know as well.
edit: lets also not forget diablounderground was streaming for like 4 days before they got removed from the Beta (and that was during the week, and not a weekend, we cant forget that either)
